Cyanotypes for The Equinox

Celebrate the Fall Equinox with Cyanotypes. To celebrate the beginning of fall we will be using the sun to make Cyanotype prints. The Cyanotype process is a simple photographic process that uses the suns UV light to expose its light sensitive material, then developed in water to make a final image. This process can be used to make many types of images and has a rich visual history since its invention in 1842 by Sir John Hershel. Come learn about this process, the equinox, and make something to celebrate the beginning of a new season.
